Happy New Year! Here's to hoping for Diablo 3 to get better and better in the coming year. Expansion announcement perhaps?

From the leaked timeline awhile ago, the first expansion was slated for Q2 of 2013, obviously that's not going to happen. HotS was slated to be out Q4 of 2011, which is coming in March. I'd hope for an announcement by the end of the year.

For PvP to work in this game, it would have to be a completely different beast, i.e skills work differently, different damages, etc... Zones like battle zones would be perfect for this. If it ends up adjusting PvE for PvP balance, it will simply upset a lot of fans, especially HC players who would see nerfs/adjustments for the sake of PvP, which really would be sad to see.

I hope Blizz, if they do implement this, does it right. It cannot turn into WoW and seeing larger PvE changes due to PvP.

Captcha would be more annoying than anything. The only real time you could prompt it is before you enter a game, otherwise HC players would go berserk having it pop up mid-game. And I already filled out something to prove who I am before-hand, an authenticator. If I have to continually prove who I am beyond that, I'll probably quit from annoyance.

Is there any area of Act 4 that is really fun and enjoyable? Act 4 needs more dungeons with more elite packs in it so you don't have to do the entire thing to get your NV stacks. Until then, we'll all just continue to avoid it.

If they want a way to make higher MP levels more appealing, how about extending the time of shrines on higher MP levels? Shrines are so much more powerful on lower MP levels due to the amount of packs you can get through with the enlightened shrine or fleeting shrine up. If shrines lasted longer on higher MP's, it would be a worthy bonus.
